System Concepts for the Operational Medical Information System (OMIS): A Symposium
Abstract
Significant research and development is being directed towards improving medical information management capabilities for the U.S. Navy. This work was described in a series of papers presented at the Eighteenth Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Science. Design Concepts of the Operational Medical Information System (OMIS) describes how OMIS is designed to provide automated system for the U.S. Navy and Fleet Marine Force. The three subsystems planned within OMIS involve the remote shore clinics, shipboard medical department, and the fleet Marine Force. The Fleet Marine Force Combat Casualty Medical Information System: an Overview details the field component of the fleet Marine Force subsystem of OMIS Concepts for the development of the Shipboard Medical Information System are described in 'Preliminary Specifications for a Shipboard Medical Information System. The Operational Medical Information System (OMIS) in Navy Branch Clinics', explains how a systems analysis approach is being undertaken for Navy Branch Clincs in order to develop a system design. Injury severity scoring techniques are reviewed in 'selection of a field severity scoring system for the Navy Operational Medical Information System'. The possible use of injury severity scores to aid in case management and evaluation of medical care effectiveness is examined. Keywords: Computer programs, Hardened structures, Information retrieval, Requirements.
